What changed

Recipharm has extended high-potency oral solid dose manufacturing at Leganés, Spain, to GMP pilot scale. A contained suite combines dry granulation, tableting, and coating for compounds up to OEB 5. The same pilot equipment can support clinical and small commercial batches, with larger programs transferring to commercial lines at the same site rather than another facility.

Why it may matter

Smaller high-containment batches may reduce transfer complexity, but sponsors still need product-specific evidence of process suitability and scale-up comparability.

The interpretation above is analysis, not a conclusion attributed to the original source.

Peptide–oligonucleotide nanohybrids deliver miRNA to injured bone in rats

A Nature Communications study reports a peptide–oligonucleotide nanohybrid for bone-targeted miR-26a-5p delivery. The original abstract describes reduced GSK-3β expression and stabilization of HIF-1α, supporting coupled bone formation and angiogenesis. Systemic administration limited skeletal and vascular injury in a rat glucocorticoid-induced bone-loss model. This is preclinical miRNA delivery, not oral cyclic peptide therapy or human efficacy evidence.

FDA grants accelerated approval for subcutaneous amivantamab combination in selected head and neck cancers

FDA granted accelerated approval to amivantamab and hyaluronidase-lpuj for adults with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma after platinum chemotherapy and an anti-PD-(L)1 antibody. HPV-associated oropharyngeal cancer is excluded. In the 102-patient OrigAMI-4 efficacy population, response rate was 42%. Continued approval requires confirmatory clinical benefit; this is not traditional full approval.
